Had a great tournament winning the Bassmaster Central Federation championship. As water temp were falling, I had 3 patterns going that help best the field by over 4lbs and had the largest bag of the tournament of 19.4. Many fish we stacked on the ledges in the back of larger creeks. I target channel swing ledges in 10-14ft with a strike king xd5 custom painted by Bag5Baits. In addition with slightly stained water I caught a majority of my fish extremely shallow on docks w a 1/2 black n blue flippin jig. Last two key fish over 5lbs, were boated on Berkeley Choppo custom painted in Bone Ranger color by Bag5Baits. Awesome tournament and great payday!

Fishing pattern was targeting deep points. Throwing lipless chrome black back 1/2 oz.. on a four hour. trip boated 48 fish. 28 where I would call a weighable fish. The others where short fish. But all fish any size fun to catch.

Two flukes was the technique today. Two owner switch lock hooks, one ball bearing swivel. I place my second lures a 1” from the tail of the first fluke.

Everyone has their on technique of fishing a fluke. But todays was not twitching it back. But mostly swimming it back slow in retrieve and letting it fall in holes/open spots in the matt. Then it was game on. Set tha hook till you get tied. Lol.
